We are staying at the Hostalillo at the moment, mid April, and it is really good. Tamariu is quiet but the weather is good and the beach is uncrowded. Lots of families and Spanish visitors. The hotel is really comfortable and the breakfast is very good. Very reasonable rates and great service. Recommended.

We have just returned from Tamariu after spending 8 days at the Hotel Hostalillo. This was a perfect place to stay especially after our crazy tour of Barcelona! Yes, the hotel is quiet and this is why we chose to stay here. We particularly enjoyed the easy access from the hotel to the beach and the great coastal walks (Cami... More

We were staying for a week and we'd asked for a sea view room. But, because the hotel was busy, we were given a room overlooking the entrance (and turning place for vehicles) with no view at all. This room was a reasonable size but it had a tiny balcony which only just took a small table and two chairs.... More

Stayed for 3 days in late August. Tamariu is a small jewel in amongst a gravel pit of over built Spanish resorts and Hotel Hostelillo occupies one of the best positions in it. Our room had a great view of the beach, a verandah and thanks to its air conditioning (which apparently isn't standard) it remained perfect at night. Also... More

Booked a family room for 3 nights at relatively short notice (booked in May for early August). The hotel is hard to access and parking involves finding a space in one of the streets that wind up the very steep hill above the hotel. There is a small turning/stopping point just outside reception but this is almost always jammed solid.... More

We stayed 4 days at Hostalillo, what a fantastic experience. The room wirh an amazing view on the mediterrean see, very friendly staff and the beach at few steps. We will certainly repeat. Ignore the references related to an old place, fully refurbished few years ago. Best gin tonic ever.

Tamariu was the highlight of our ten days in Spain and France. Hostalillo is the perfect spot-- the views are extraordinary and you walk right out of the hotel onto the beach. This little pebbled cove has aquamarine water, a fabulous trail to hike along the cliffs, good seafood. Our teenagers loved diving off the diving board suspended at the... More

This hotel is in a perfect location, set above the beach. Rooms are lovely and very clean, the sea view from our terrace is lovely and hearing the waves from your room is so relaxing. Breakfast was good enjoyed the cava and the view again. A lovely resort and a great place to stay. My favourite was drinking cava on... More

In May we hopped on a plane to Girona to spend five days in Catalonia. We had spotted this place on the internet after extensive research and didn't quite believe it when we read that the village was unspoilt. It is absolutely charming! We didn't believe that places like this still existed. We upgraded to a room with a balcony... More
